Central Bank Report
Topic: Choose a Central Bank. Write a report of up to 1500 words (excluding references), addressing the
following criteria:
1. Assess the history of the Central Bank’s activities in the past 10 years with formulating policy.
2. Choose an economic crisis that the Central Bank’s country experienced, and explain how the Central
Bank has responded to that major event.
3. Evaluates the effectiveness of the Central Bank’s response before, during, and after the said event.
This topic provides ample scope for using data. However, you only need to present the data, or present findings
from other academic articles to support your report. You are not required to do econometric analysis.
You are required to use a good mix of sources including the internet, textbooks, newspapers, and academic
journals, articles from newspapers and business magazines. You must provide a list of full-ranged references
used or referred to in the essay.
Criteria & Marking
Your assignment will be marked on the following criteria:
• Assessment and overview of Central Bank’s activities (6 marks)
• Explanation of Central Bank’s response to economic crisis (4 marks)
• Evaluation of the Central Bank’s response (10 marks)
• Writing Quality (5 marks)
• Presentation (1 mark)
• Referencing (4 marks)
See the accompanying rubric for a breakdown of each category. In addition, there are some points to consider:
• Your essay must have a cover page detailing your ID and word count.
o Remember to give a total word count (excluding references) on the cover page.
• Read the task word and answer accordingly. A guide can be found on Blackboard.
• References:
o Any reference style is allowed, but it must be consistent (i.e. same style throughout the essay).
o You cannot cite Wikipedia or Investopedia.
o If graphs/figures/tables are used, remember to quote the source of the figure/dataset.
• Do not plagiarize! It will be dealt with very seriously in UQ and is simply not worth trying.
Submission:
Each student should submit a Word or PDF file through the Turnitin link on the Blackboard course website.
Submission through email will not be accepted. All submissions will be run through the Turnitin anti-plagiarism
software.
